The Cincinnati Bengals are practicing for the final time before Sunday’s game against the Minnesota Vikings, and there appears to be a glimmer of hope that both defensive end Carlos Dunlap and offensive tackle Andrew Whitworth will be be able to play Sunday, despite dealing with concussions:

Indeed it does. It’s very hard to imagine a player could suffer a concussion on Wednesday and play on Sunday. Expect the latest offensive line shift to see Anthony Collins to start at left tackle, Mike Pollak at left guard and Kevin Zeitler at right guard.
